About
I’m Jaci Peña, a hospitality photographer and creative director with more than 10 years of experience. Through The J Projects, I’ve shot boutique hotels, restaurants, bars and lifestyle brands in Miami and Nashville.
I photograph spaces and experiences the way guests feel them: moody, ambient interiors that sell the atmosphere, and bright, high-energy food, cocktail and nightlife content built for social media. One shoot can cover your rooms, lobby, bar, menu and the in-between moments that make people want to book a room or a table.
Because I work as both photographer and creative director, I plan the shot list and art direct on set. You get a cohesive library of images for your website, booking platforms, menus and social media.
Based in Miami and Nashville. Available for travel.

Jaci has photographed several events for us over the past few years. She captures the guests, entertainment, decorative details, food, lighting...everything. It's a pleasure having her on-site because you know that all of the special moments will be shot. No worries. She's able to interact with the guests on a professional level and has a great attitude. I highly recommend Jaci. She loves what she does and it shows in her work.

I hired Jaci to take photos of me while woking in the field, I am a photographer my self and I am very particular about who I trust. She managed to capture everything I was looking for. From me setting up to getting the job done. I will for sure be working with Jaci in the future.

In the real estate market your job as a agent is to set your listing apart from the others. Jaci’s attention to detail and ability to capture the property in its nature state not only sets our listings apart from the others but creates a Huge Value to our firm and our clients. A pleasure to do business with!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing depends on the scope, the number of final images and how you’ll use them. Half-day shoots start at $1,200 and full days typically run $1,800–$3,800.
Commercial usage and licensing are quoted separately, so you only pay for the rights you need. Ask about multi-location or recurring content packages.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We start with a short call about your brand, your goals and where the images will live. I then put together a shot list and a mood board, and we schedule around your best light and quietest hours. I art direct on set, and you receive edited, ready-to-use images, usually within about two weeks.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
More than 15 years of photography experience, starting in fine art photography in 2010. I managed a professional photo studio in Wynwood for two years and have worked as a photographer and creative director in hospitality, interiors and architecture since 2014. [Add any degree or courses here.]
